Objective To investigate the role of color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI)in the early diagnosis of heterotopic ossification after spinal cord injury.Methods Serial CDFI and X-ray were performed per week in 39 patients with spinal cord injuries who were suspicioned with heterotopic ossification clinically.Results The finding under the CDFI including:losing of the regular lamellar pattern of the muscle fibres,chaotic irregular echogenic pattern,echo-free heamatoma,calcification,and extrinsic venous compression.There was statistical significance of incidence of diagnosis between CDFI and X-ray within a week(PP<0.01).Conclusion CDFI is effective on the early diagnosis of heterotopic ossification.

[Objective] To investigate the changes of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+regulatory T cells (Tregs) in peripheral blood of patients with esophageal carcinoma and its possible clinical significance.[Methods] The flow cytometry was used to evaluate the population of CD4+,CD25+,Foxp3+T cells in the peripheral blood of the patients with esophageal carcinoma before therapy and of the healthy donors.[Results] The percentage of CD4+,CD25+,Foxp3+T cells of the esophageal carcinoma group before therapy was significantly higher than the healthy donors group (P

0.05 ). However, benazepril+losartan group was better than benazepril group in improving heart composition and function (P

ObjectiveTo study the speciality of cerebral blood flow velocity of patients with spinal cord injury at different stages after injury.MethodsCerebral blood flow velocity of 46 patients with spinal cord injury were examined by color Doppler ultrasonic technique.ResultsThere was significant difference in diastolic velocity of CBF between patients with course of disease being 3-6 months and >6 months. ConclusionUltrasonography provides an basis for the diagnosis of cerebral blood flow velocity at clinical.

Objective To study the relationship between expression of CD44v6 in gastric carcinoma and neoplasm metastasis and prognosis. Methods Expression of CD44v6 in 52 cases of gastric carcinoma was assayed by flow immunocytometry, and its relation with clinical pathology and prognosis was analyzed. Results In 52 cases of gastric carcinoma tissue, the positive rate of CD44v6 expression was 67.31%(35/52); but the positive rate of CD44v6 expression in normal gastric tissue was 25.00% (13/52). The positive rate of expression was significantly different (P

Objective To explore the short axial strain of left ventricle in patients with atrial septal defect(ASD)before and after the transcatheter closure by using two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI).Methods A total of 30 patients with ASD underwent echocardiography before and after the transcatheter closure.The procedure was performed to obtain the peak of circumferential strain(Sc)and radial stain(Sr)of left ventricle by 2D-STI.Thirty healthy volunteers were enrolled as controls.Results ①Compared with the control group,regional myocardial Sc of ASD group decreased(P <0.05).Sc of anterior septum (AS),anterior wall (AW),laterior wall (LW)and posterior wall (PW)increased (P <0.05)at 2-days after the transcatheter closure and those parameters were higher than control group.At the six-months after the transcatheter closure,those parameters reduced to the normal level (P <0.05).Sc of inferior wall (IW)and mid-posterior septum (MP-Sept)increased to the normal level at 2-days after the closure surgery (P <0.05).②Compared with control group,regional myocardial Sr of ASD group decreased(P <0.05 ) except PW,two-days after the transcatheter closure these parameters increased to the normal level.Sr of PW in ASD group increased compared with control group(P <0.05),and there were no statistical changes at 2-days after the transcatheter closure.Sr of PW in ASD decreased (P <0.05 )to normal level until 6-months after the transcatheter closure.③ Global circumferential strain (GCS)of left ventricular in ASD group were lower than control group (P <0.05 ).At two-days after undergoing transcatheter closure the GCS increased (P <0.05)and those parameters were higher than control group (P <0.05).Six-months after the transcatheter closure those parameters reduced to the normal level (P < 0.05 ).There were no statistical differences of left ventricular global radial strain (GRS)between control group and ASD group. However,the GRS of ASD group increased (P < 0.05 )and those parameters were higher than control group (P <0.05)after 2-days undergoing the transcatheter closure.At six-months after the transcatheter closure those parameters were reduced to normal level (P <0.05 ).Conclusions 2D-STI can quantitative evaluate left ventricular circumferential strain and radial strain in patients with ASD before and after the transcatheter closure.

To establish the identification method for Physalis angulatae fructus Seu calyx and Physalis calyx Seu fruc-tus. Methods:Four methods including macroscopy,microscopy,TLC and HPLC were used. Results: There were some differences in macroscopic and microscopic characteristics and physicochemical identification between Physalis angulatae Fructus Seu Calyx and Phys-alis Calyx Seu Fructus. Conclusion:The established method is simple and easy,which can objectively and accurately distinguish Phys-alis angulatae Fructus Seu Calyx from Physalis Calyx Seu Fructus.

Objective To observe the cerebral hemodynamics in ischemic stroke patients after compound anisodine acupoint injection.Methods 40 stroke patients were measured with transcranial color Doppler before and 4 h,24 h after compound anisodine acupoint injection.Results After injection,the velocity of the cerebral artery showed some increase,the end diastolic velocity of the ophthalmic artery increased and the pulsitility index decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion The compound anisodine acupoint injection may improve the flow velocity of ophthalmic artery and cerebral artery.

ObjectiveTo assess the value of spinal ultrasound in children with congenital anomalies of spine. MethodsUltrasound findings of 36 children with congenital anomalies of spine were analyzed and compared with the finding of corresponding MRI or operation. ResultsUltrasound finding was the same as MRI in the anatomy in 31/36 children, in addition, it also could show the pulsatile motion and blood flow signals of conus medullaris. ConclusionSpinal ultrasound can present more other informations for diagnosis for congenital anomalies of spine, especially the blood supply of conus medullaris.

Objective To evaluate the value of color Doppler ultrasonography for diagnosis of superior mesenteric artery diseases. Methods78 patients with abdominal pain suspected to be superior mesenteric artery diseases underwent color Doppler ultrasonography. The results were compared with other imaging methods or findings in operation. Results4 patients with superior mesenteric artery embolization coincided with the founding in operation. 18 of the 22 patients suggested with superior mesenteric artery stenoses were confirmed by CTA or DSA. ConclusionColor Doppler ultrasonography can be used in diagnosis of superior mesenteric artery diseases.
